Right?...I feel like it's a trick word problem or something.
Why not just ask "How old was your mom when she had her first kid? And how old were you when you had your first kid?"



Seems the vast majority understand the question. If you still don’t, despite it being clarified, move on. No trick to the question at all.

how old is your oldest child? How old was your mom when her oldest was the same age as your oldest? That’s the first number. The second number is your current age.


Your clarification is even more confusing. Why not just ask how old was your mom when she had her first child and how old were you when you had your first child--if that's what you want to know.

My mom's in her 80s, her oldest is in her 50s, my oldest is a teenager, and I'm in my 40s. So I think you want me to add the age of my oldest child to the year my sister was born than subtract the year my mother was born. The math isn't hard, I'm just trying to wrap my head around why you would word it that way.


I don’t want to know that. I want to know the ages of the mothers when they have kids their oldest kids’ ages. That’s different from wanting to know how old someone was when they had her first child.
